Musical Interlude: Here's another song from my young days; my parents were fond of this one. It's also a big example of what was later known as the "Nashville sound" or the "Countrypolitan" style, which took country music and added lush strings, smooth tones, and backing choruses, to make it more in line with the pop charts, and pulling country music further away from its honky-tonk roots.

"Rose Garden," performed by Lynn Anderson.
